We went to Tacoma to go shopping for school clothes and while we were in the neighborhood, we stopped by the Old Spaghetti Factory. I recall eating at the OSF at Ward Warehouse in Hawai'i as a child and later as a young adult. It's such a great deal! You always get piping hot sourdough bread with butter, a huge salad with yummy dressing, and a mammoth entree. The boys always share a spaghetti and meatball. Yes, singular. It's the size of a fist and I need only cut it in half before the boys tear into it. I have to take full advantage of how little the boys are especially in relation to their consumption of food. My dear friend Theresa has a teenaged son named Thomas John and she says he eats approximately 22,000 calories a day. No doubt that can be a large percentage of one's income so I have to keep that in mind for the future. Here's a picture of them:
After the OSF, we made the obligatory stop at Hello, Cupcake. More like, Hello, that's why I've gained 5 pounds since discovering this gem a year ago! I always get their chocolate-chocolate cupcake. I also got the carrot cake (Jake Lee's fave) and a sprinkles cake. If Joe were in tow, we would have gotten German Chocolate since its his favorite (bleh!) and is seasonal-only offered in September. He wasn't present so I had free reign of cake options.
